CHARGING
DESCRIPTION
The charging system consists of:
²Generator
²Electronic Voltage Regulator (EVR) circuitry
within the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Ignition switch
²Battery (refer to 8, Battery for information)
²Battery temperature sensor
²Generator Lamp (if equipped)
²Check Gauges Lamp (if equipped)
²Voltmeter (refer to 8, Instrument Cluster for
information)
²Wiring harness and connections (refer to 8, Wir-
ing for information)
OPERATION
The charging system is turned on and off with the
ignition switch. The system is on when the engine is
running and the ASD relay is energized. When the
ASD relay is on, voltage is supplied to the ASD relay
sense circuit at the PCM. This voltage is connected
through the PCM and supplied to one of the genera-
tor field terminals (Gen. Source +) at the back of the
generator.
The amount of DC current produced by the gener-
ator is controlled by the EVR (field control) circuitry
contained within the PCM. This circuitry is con-
nected in series with the second rotor field terminal
and ground.
A battery temperature sensor, located in the bat-
tery tray housing, is used to sense battery tempera-
ture. This temperature data, along with data from
monitored line voltage, is used by the PCM to vary
the battery charging rate. This is done by cycling theground path to control the strength of the rotor mag-
netic field. The PCM then compensates and regulates
generator current output accordingly.
All vehicles are equipped with On-Board Diagnos-
tics (OBD). All OBD-sensed systems, including EVR
(field control) circuitry, are monitored by the PCM.
Each monitored circuit is assigned a Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC). The PCM will store a DTC in elec-
tronic memory for certain failures it detects. Refer to
Diagnostic Trouble Codes in; Powertrain Control
Module; Electronic Control Modules for more DTC
information.
The Check Gauges Lamp (if equipped) monitors:
charging system voltage,engine coolant tempera-
ture and engine oil pressure. If an extreme condition
is indicated, the lamp will be illuminated. This is
done as reminder to check the three gauges. The sig-
nal to activate the lamp is sent via the CCD bus cir-
cuits. The lamp is located on the instrument panel.
Refer to 8, Instrument Cluster for additional infor-
mation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CHARGING
SYSTEM
The following procedures may be used to diagnose
the charging system if:
²the check gauges lamp (if equipped) is illumi-
nated with the engine running
²the voltmeter (if equipped) does not register
properly
²an undercharged or overcharged battery condi-
tion occurs.
Remember that an undercharged battery is often
caused by:
²accessories being left on with the engine not
running
8F - 24 CHARGINGWJ

SPECIAL TOOLS
BATTERY TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is attached
to the battery tray located under the battery.
OPERATION
The BTS is used to determine the battery temper-
ature and control battery charging rate. This temper-
ature data, along with data from monitored line
voltage, is used by the PCM to vary the battery
charging rate. System voltage will be higher at colder
temperatures and is gradually reduced at warmer
temperatures.
The PCM sends 5 volts to the sensor and is
grounded through the sensor return line. As temper-
ature increases, resistance in the sensor decreases
and the detection voltage at the PCM increases.The BTS is also used for OBD II diagnostics. Cer-
tain faults and OBD II monitors are either enabled
or disabled, depending upon BTS input (for example,
disable purge and enable Leak Detection Pump
(LDP) and O2 sensor heater tests). Most OBD II
monitors are disabled below 20 degrees F.
REMOVAL
The battery temperature sensor is located under
the vehicle battery (Fig. 1) and is attached to a
mounting hole on the battery tray.

STARTING
DESCRIPTION
An electrically operated engine starting system is
standard factory-installed equipment on this model.
The starting system is designed to provide the vehi-
cle operator with a convenient, efficient and reliable
means of cranking and starting the internal combus-
tion engine used to power the vehicle and all of its
accessory systems from within the safe and secure
confines of the passenger compartment. See the own-
er's manual in the vehicle glove box for more infor-
mation and instructions on the recommended use
and operation of the factory-installed starting sys-
tem.
The starting system consists of the following com-
ponents:
²Battery
²Starter relay
²Starter motor (including an integral starter sole-
noid)
²Ignition switch
²Park/neutral position switch
²Wire harnesses and connections (including the
battery cables).
This group provides complete service information
for the starter motor and the starter relay. Complete
service information for the other starting system
components can be located as follows:
²Refer toBatteryin the proper section of Group
8A - Battery for complete service information for the
battery.
²Refer toIgnition Switch and Key Lock Cyl-
inderin the proper section of Group 8D - Ignition
System for complete service information for the igni-
tion switch.²Refer toPark/Neutral Position Switchin the
proper section of Group 21 - Transmission for com-
plete service information for the park/neutral posi-
tion switch.
²Refer to the proper section ofGroup 8W - Wir-
ing Diagramsfor complete service information and
circuit diagrams for the starting system wiring com-
ponents.
Group 8A covers the Battery, Group 8B covers the
Starting Systems, and Group 8C covers the Charging
System. We have separated these systems to make it
easier to locate the information you are seeking
within this Service Manual. However, when attempt-
ing to diagnose any of these systems, it is important
that you keep their interdependency in mind.
The battery, starting, and charging systems in the
vehicle operate with one another, and must be tested
as a complete system. In order for the vehicle to start
and charge properly, all of the components that are
used in these systems must perform within specifica-
tions.
The diagnostic procedures used in each of these
groups include the most basic conventional diagnostic
methods, to the more sophisticated On-Board Diag-
nostics (OBD) built into the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM). Use of an induction-type milliampere
ammeter, volt/ohmmeter, battery charger, carbon pile
rheostat (load tester), and 12-volt test lamp may be
required.
All OBD-sensed systems are monitored by the
PCM. Each monitored circuit is assigned a Diagnos-
tic Trouble Code (DTC). The PCM will store a DTC in
electronic memory for any failure it detects. Refer to
On-Board Diagnostic Test For Charging System
in the Diagnosis and Testing section of Group 8C -
Charging System for more information.
WJSTARTING 8F - 29

OPERATION
These starter motors are equipped with a plane-
tary gear reduction (intermediate transmission) sys-
tem. The planetary gear reduction system consists of
a gear that is integral to the output end of the elec-
tric motor armature shaft that is in continual
engagement with a larger gear that is splined to the
input end of the starter pinion gear shaft. This fea-
ture makes it possible to reduce the dimensions of
the starter. At the same time, it allows higher arma-
ture rotational speed and delivers increased torque
through the starter pinion gear to the starter ring
gear.
The starter motors for both engines are activated
by an integral heavy duty starter solenoid switch
mounted to the overrunning clutch housing. This
electromechanical switch connects and disconnects
the feed of battery voltage to the starter motor and
actuates a shift fork that engages and disengages the
starter pinion gear with the starter ring gear.
Both starter motors use an overrunning clutch and
starter pinion gear unit to engage and drive a starter
ring gear that is integral to the torque converter
drive plate mounted on the rear crankshaft flange.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - STARTER MOTOR
Correct starter motor operation can be confirmed
by performing the following free running bench test.
This test can only be performed with the starter
motor removed from the vehicle. Refer toStarting
Systemin the Specifications section of this group for
the starter motor specifications.
(1) Remove the starter motor from the vehicle.
Refer toStarter Motorin the Removal and Instal-
lation section of this group for the procedures.
(2) Mount the starter motor securely in a soft-
jawed bench vise. The vise jaws should be clamped
on the mounting flange of the starter motor. Never
clamp on the starter motor by the field frame.
(3) Connect a suitable volt-ampere tester and a
12-volt battery to the starter motor in series, and set
the ammeter to the 100 ampere scale. See the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
volt-ampere tester being used.
(4) Install a jumper wire from the solenoid termi-
nal to the solenoid battery terminal. The starter
motor should operate. If the starter motor fails to
operate, replace the faulty starter motor assembly.
(5) Adjust the carbon pile load of the tester to
obtain the free running test voltage. Refer toStart-
ing Systemin the Specifications section of this
group for the starter motor free running test voltage
specifications.
(6) Note the reading on the ammeter and compare
this reading to the free running test maximum
amperage draw. Refer toStarting Systemin theSpecifications section of this group for the starter
motor free running test maximum amperage draw
specifications.
(7) If the ammeter reading exceeds the maximum
amperage draw specification, replace the faulty
starter motor assembly.
STARTER SOLENOID
This test can only be performed with the starter
motor removed from the vehicle.
(1) Remove the starter motor from the vehicle.
Refer toStarter Motorin the Removal and Instal-
lation section of this group for the procedures.
(2) Disconnect the wire from the solenoid field coil
terminal.
(3) Check for continuity between the solenoid ter-
minal and the solenoid field coil terminal with a con-
tinuity tester (Fig. 7). There should be continuity. If
OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, replace the faulty starter
motor assembly.
(4) Check for continuity between the solenoid ter-
minal and the solenoid case (Fig. 8). There should be
continuity. If not OK, replace the faulty starter motor

OPERATION - REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER
The rear window defogger system is controlled by a
momentary switch that is integral to the a/c heater
control located in the center stack area of the instru-
ment panel. A Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in the
switch button will light to indicate when the rear
window defogger system is turned on. The BCM,
which contains the rear window defogger system
timer and control logic, monitors the status of the
defogger switch through a hard-wired input. The
BCM then sends control outputs through a hard
wired circuit to energize or de-energize the defogger
relay.
The electrically heated outside rear view mirror
heating grids are also controlled by the rear window
defogger switch. When the BCM receives an input
from the switch, it sends a defogger switch status
message to the DDM and the PDM over the PCI data
bus. The DDM and PDM respond to the defogger
switch status messages by energizing or de-energiz-
ing the battery current feed to their respective out-
side rear view mirror heating grids.
The rear window defogger system will be automat-
ically turned off after a programmed time interval of
about ten minutes. After the initial time interval has
expired, if the defogger switch is turned on again
during the same ignition cycle, the defogger system
will automatically turn off after about five minutes.
The defogger system will automatically shut off if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position, or it can
be turned off manually by depressing the rear win-
dow defogger switch again.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of the rear window defogger system.

ate Wiring Information). The operation of the electri-
cally heated rear window defogger system can be
confirmed in one of the following manners:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
While monitoring the instrument panel voltmeter,
depress the rear window defogger switch to the On
position. When the rear window defogger switch is
turned On, a distinct voltmeter needle deflection
should be noted.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Depress the rear window defogger switch to the On
position. The rear window defogger operation can be
checked by feeling the rear window or outside rear
view mirror glass. A distinct difference in tempera-
ture between the grid lines and the adjacent clear
glass or the mirror glass can be detected within three
to four minutes of operation.
3. Using a 12-volt DC voltmeter, contact the rear
glass heating grid terminal A (right side) with the
negative lead, and terminal B (left side) with the pos-
itive lead (Fig. 1). The voltmeter should read battery
voltage.
The above checks will confirm rear window defog-
ger system operation. Illumination of the rear win-
dow defogger switch LED indicator means that there
is battery current available at the output of the rear
window defogger relay, but does not confirm that bat-
tery current is reaching the rear glass heating grid
lines.
If the rear window defogger system does not oper-
ate, the problem should be isolated in the following
manner:

(3) The relay normally open terminal (87) is con-
nected to the common feed terminal (30) in the ener-
gized position. This terminal supplies battery voltage
to the rear glass heating grid and to the fuse in the
junction block that feeds the rear window defogger
switch LED indicator. There should be continuity
between the cavity for relay terminal 87 and the rear
glass heating grid and the rear window defogger
switch LED indicator at all times. If OK, go to Step
4. If not OK, repair the open rear window defogger
relay output circuit as required.
(4) The coil battery terminal (86) is connected to
the electromagnet in the relay. It is connected to bat-
tery voltage and should be hot at all times. Check for
battery voltage at the cavity for relay terminal 86. If
OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open fused
B(+) circuit to the PDC fuse as required.
(5) The coil ground terminal (85) is connected to
the electromagnet in the relay. This terminal is pro-
vided with ground by the Body Control Module
(BCM) rear window defogger timer and logic circuitry
to energize the defogger relay. There should be conti-
nuity to the rear window defogger relay control cir-
cuit cavity of the 22-way instrument panel wire
harness connector for the BCM. If OK, use a DRB
scan tool and refer to the Appropriate Diagnostic
Information to test the BCM. If not OK, repair the
open rear window defogger relay control circuit as
required.
